Eureka, Power of 10, Big Brother, and more!

By Staci Krause

Welcome to IGN TV's What 2 Watch -- your guide to what's noteworthy on TV each night. You may notice we'll point out shows worth watching that air at the same time -- it's up to you to make a choice or fire up a DVR.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 28, 2007

Power of 10: "Episode 105" -- 8:00pm ET/PT on CBS. The contestant who can most accurately predict the American public's response to intriguing poll questions could walk away winning millions. This show reaches out across America to poll thousands of people and ask them, well, just about everything - from "What percentage of Americans said they were virgins the day they got married?" to "How many Americans believe they are smarter than president George W. Bush?" Each week contestants will be tested to see if they have their finger on the pulse of the people and can accurately predict the results of the nationwide surveys. With the first question worth $1,000 and only five questions to answer, and each one increasing 10 times in value, the contestant who has the best take on the American mindset could walk away with a $10 million payday.

On Power of 10 tonight, they are doing a tie-in with Big Brother, when Amber and Daniele face off against each other for a chance to win the big bucks. We've been given no clues at all by either Amber or Daniele as to how they did on the show, at least from the footage we've seen. It should be interesting to see who came out on top and how well they did. It's also interesting that Nick keeps cropping up at every turn for Daniele, instead of her actual boyfriend.

Big Brother 8: "Episode 824" -- 9:00 pm ET/PT on CBS. Amber and Zach are on the block for elimination, nominated by Jessica. A veto competition is held to see if one of them can save themselves and the veto ceremony takes place.

The Bill Engvall Show: "The Birthday" -- 9:00 pm ET/PT on TBS. It's Bill's birthday, and he's convinced his family is buying him a motorcycle. But the actual gift doesn't quite live up to his expectations. Meanwhile, Lauren seeks her brothers' help in crafting a fake ID so she can go to a hot new club. And the Pearson's neighbor, Mr. Faulkner, has eyes for Bill's mother.

Eureka: "E=MC&#Array;?" -- 9:00 pm ET/PT on Sci-Fi Channel. As an experiment that will recreate the first moments of the origins of the universe - the "Big Bang" - goes terribly awry, the town's geniuses turn into morons, leaving the fate of Eureka in the hands of Jack Carter and an antisocial young ubergenius.

i-Caught -- 9:00 pm ET/PT on ABC. From a riveting and dramatic battle between lions, crocodiles and buffalo captured on amateur video in remote Africa to wedding dances becoming the new hit music videos, from using the Internet as a dragnet to catch thieves to the virtual collision of fame and infamy, "i-CAUGHT" premieres with five stories that have been impacted by the new video revolution. Every one of these videos has a compelling story behind it. Who made it? What was going on behind the scenes? What came after it, and how were lives changed forever?

Tori & Dean: Inn Love: "BBQ or Bust" -- 10:00pm ET/PT on Oxygen. When Tori and Dean receive negative press in regional newspapers, they throw a neighborhood barbecue at the inn to win over the locals.
